Numa 1.1.5 — the brain moves to the server

update · 18 February 2026 · numa

Under the hood, this is the largest change Numa has had. Its reasoning — the part that decides what to do next — moved off your machine and onto our server. The app on your desktop became a thinner, calmer thing: it shows you what is happening and carries out the work, while the harder thinking happens elsewhere.

You will not see most of it. What you will notice is that Numa starts faster, weighs less while idle, and behaves the same whether you are on a Mac or, soon, somewhere else. Moving the brain to one place is also what makes everything after this — Windows, and more — possible.

  • Reasoning runs on the server; the desktop app is now a light client.
  • Faster cold starts and a smaller idle footprint.
  • Anthropic's Claude as the primary mind, with a fallback for when it is unreachable.
  • Groundwork laid for running Numa beyond the Mac.
